re: #26 CuriousLurker

He says he’s angry about “forced diversity”—WTF does that even mean? I’m gonna guess he means “forced tolerance” of anti-discrimination laws. A guy can’t even abuse or discriminate against the people he’s uncomfortable with anymore.

Such tyranny. //

The peple who post over at Dreher’s site tend to think that having to sublet apartments to GLBT people or serve or employee them in any way is gubmint tyranny and a vilation of mah relijus freedumb

Hence, Dreher posted an interview with a Texas congressional evangelical candidate who is running in response to those gheys getting the right to marry. Natch, the guy is a nutbag and a young earth creationist. This was pointed out to Rod…who got very, very testy as is his want when he is challenged in his own combox:

[NFR: Whether or not a Congressional candidate believes in Young Earth Creationism is a deal-breaker only to militant atheists, readers of P.Z. Myers and Jerry Coyne, and other cranks. I am not a Young Earth Creationist, but I’d vote for one in a heartbeat if he or she were right on the issues that really mattered, and effective. … — RD]

So, a YEC lunatic is fine with Dreher as long as he/she sticks it to the gheys and the “trannies”.

Also, defenders of science in schools are “cranks”.

Of course, this from a guy who keeps telling the world about his knowledge of univocity, nominalism and (insert Greek philosophy term here) since Medieval theology and philosophy were the high point of mankind’s intellectual achievement in Dreherland.
